  • New work by Arabella Proffer

    Arabella Proffer has added some new paintings to her site, and these new ones are not portraits. I have seen some non portrait work from Arabella before, but nothing like this. Each of these new ‘Flower’ paintings are 16″ x 16″ and look amazing. The idea that these are the first of these surreal landscape works, and what would these new styled paintings look like if she keeps going in this direction is very exciting. Take a look at these three, and head on over to her homepage for all her new art.

  • “Vampirella” painting by Arabella Proffer

    Arabella Proffer just added a new original oil painting to her Etsy shop. “Vampirella” was first shown at the “Identity Theft: reinventing the comic hero” exhibition that took place last year. The painting is 8″ x 10″, oil on canvas and is already in an ornate gold frame. Arabella’s style of painting worked out perfect for the character. It’s a great painting for this Halloween, and is classy enough to keep up all year.

    Works

  • Our New Sponsor: Arabella Proffer

    The newest sponsor to the site is artist Arabella Proffer. She has had work featured on the site quite a few times, and even had a couple of paintings in the “Attack of the B Movie Show” that I curated a while back. She has a very unique style, as you can see in the painting shown “St. Lorelei, Patron Saint of High-End Haircare”. The colors in her work are vibrant, and I love the influence that Tamara de Lempicka has had as seen with the hands.
